CAIRO (Reuters) – Hamas senior official Osama Hamdan criticized U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s statement on Monday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accepted an updated proposal, saying it “raises many ambiguities” because it is “not what was presented to us nor what we agreed on.”
